Thegoalmac has learned that Liverpool can still save their season and could kick-start it beating Bournemouth to reach the League Cup semi-finals, according to former midfielder Dietmar Hamann.
Brendan Rodgers' side head to Dean Court searching for a change of
fortunes following a 1-1 draw against Basel that dumped the club out of
the Champions League and a 3-0 defeat by arch-rivals Manchester United
on Sunday.
A trip to the Championship leaders could prove tricky -
the Cherries are unbeaten since the end of the September – but Hamann
knows that the impact of a win could be very positive before a Premier
League meeting with Arsenal.
"In a season, sometimes you just
need one result and one spark from somewhere then all of a sudden the
whole complex of the season and team changes," the German told the
club's official website.
"It's tough going to a Championship team
on any given day, especially when you go to a team that are top of the
league and on a fantastic run.
"It doesn't matter where you are
in the league and what's happening - if you are in the last eight of a
cup competition, it's always a big game because this club is about
winning trophies.
"You have to be in the Champions League but you
need to win a trophy every now and then. As a club, a team and players,
you learn an awful lot about yourself and your team-mates when you play
in a quarter-final, semi-final or, hopefully in this case, a final.
"It
is an opportunity; I'd rather go to Bournemouth away than Chelsea or
Manchester City away and Liverpool will be favourites. They have just
got to get out there.
"If you go to Bournemouth and win the game,
then you look forward to the Arsenal game. A week is a long time in
football. They just have to keep working hard now, believe in
themselves, get a result on Wednesday and then move on to Arsenal."
